Chapter 6

Picking up the boys from school today was something he really didn’t want to do. He’d been working on his newest project and hadn’t wanted to stop working. But since everyone was busy getting things gathered up for the new house the Justices had bought, he’d been volunteered.

Houston thought it was funny that not only had Trudy and Blake bought their home via phone while in the car, but they’d financed it the same way. He wondered what they’d say if the house wasn’t what they were told it looked like on the pictures. Whatever it looked like, Houston was glad they so readily decided to live closer to Tru and himself.

Houston arrived at the school, Sammy, as everyone was calling him now, was holding hands with his brother, who was only in preschool a couple of days a week, when a kid he knew came up behind him and slapped him on the back. Bookbags went flying and papers too. Getting out of the car, Houston paused when Sammy looked at him and shook his head.

“You’re a murderer’s son. My mom said your daddy killed someone, and then he ate them.” Sammy told the Watcher boy he didn’t eat him. And that his dad had killed three people. “Huh?”

Apparently, he expected some other answer from Sammy and looked at him. Houston just leaned against his truck and shrugged. Clark looked at Sammy again and asked him what he meant.

“Our dad is a murderer. But he killed three people my aunt knows of so far. He also robbed a lot of people of stuff. But he didn’t eat them. You made that up.” Clark said he did. “It’s all right. Jacob and I don’t care for him either. So if you tell your mom that she might be fine with you coming to our house for a little while to play. Aunt Tru got me a game system, and Uncle Houston is showing me how to play games on it.”

“You want me to come to your house? To play with you and your little brother?” Sammy said his aunt had a pool she might let them swim in. “You’re weird. Did anyone ever tell you that?”

“Yes. All the time. But I don’t think I’m weird. I’m just not lied to about things that are important. Do your parents lie to you?” Clark nodded and said his dad did all the time. “I’m sorry about that, Clark. My parents did to us too. That’s why we’re living with my grandparents. They talk to us straight up. That’s what Grandpa Robinson calls it.”

Houston had forgotten the boys had started calling his parents Grandma and Grandpa Robinson. It had only been about an hour after they were shown around their new home, and his parents had shown up that Jacob had started calling them that. Houston thought his mom was going to cry for a week after that. She’d been so touched by it.

“My dad tells me all the time he’s going to come and get me to take me someplace.
